Albert Haynesworth’s temper has landed him in trouble with teammates and coaches before. By stomping another player’s head, the Tennessee Titans defensive tackle not only disgusted himself, he also drew a five-game suspension — the longest for on-field behavior in NFL history.

He won’t be paid while he serves the suspension, effective immediately. According to ESPN’s Chris Mortensen, the penalty will cost him approximately $500,000, based on his $1.6 million salary this season. - ESPN
